Shot Cierra at the beach. I created this as a facebook banner from a montague of 5 different images and then re-drew the sky. Tweaked the curves and added morning light effect for appeal. All work completed in CS6

Shot model with small eyes held on her fingers by wires and large eyes held on with clay.  Post work - removed wires, blended clay to appear as much like hands/skin as possible and altered teeth to appear pointed.  Darkened photo and gave it a creepier/scarier feel.
